IRS990/Desc0OUR PROJECTS FOCUS ON COMMUNITIES IN TRANSITION THAT ARE OFTEN UNDERSERVED OR OVERLOOKED BY TRADITIONAL SERVICE PROVIDERS. LOCAL CITY DEPARTMENTS WANT TO SUPPORT AND IMPROVE THESE AREAS, BUT ARE LEFT WITH LITTLE BUDGET AND CAPACITY TO DO SO. OUR UNIQUE NON-PROFIT FEE-FOR-SERVICE MODEL ENABLES US TO SERVE COMMUNITIES THAT NEED THE MOST SUPPORT, AND DO SO IN A WAY THAT PRESERVES THEIR LOCAL IDENTITY. THESE COMMUNITIES DON'T NEED NEW STRATEGIES OR IDEAS LABELED "INNOVATIVE" BY OUTSIDERS. THEY NEED AN ADVOCATE, A TRANSLATOR, AN INTERMEDIARY TO RAISE UP WHAT IS ALREADY WORKING LOCALLY AND GROW BY THEIR OWN RULES. THROUGH OUR PROCESS WE ELEVATE WHAT WORKS, AND COLLABORATE WITH CITY DEPARTMENTS AND DEVELOPERS TO CREATE MUCH NEEDED LOCAL CONTEXTUAL CHANGE. WE BELIEVE EVERYONE DESERVES AN INCLUSIVE PROCESS FOR THE GROWTH OF THEIR COMMUNITY.
